Montreal is one of Canada's economic powerhouses with an economy thriving on commercial and financial services plus a hightech industry
in aerospace, pharmacy and software engineering.
Most tourists
come for the Old Town and Old Port, but the city has much more on offer for the visitor.
A good start to get a grasp of
the city's marbels is a ride on one of the hop-on-hop-off buses. The bustour will bring you through the vibrant
gay village,
the business district,
Mont Royal Park and many other places.
Montreal has an excellent
Metro system which you can use to reach
more distant destinations like the
Olympic Park.
Rue Saint Denis in the Quartier Latin is known for its many watering
holes and restaurants.
We toured Montreal City on a sunny day in September 2017.
